What inspired me
After examining my own behavior of constantly browsing and participating in forums in my areas of interest since the era of Usenet newsgroups, I found that the format of online discussion hasn't adapted to the pace of our social interactions. One simple hack I'd like to introduce is to surface some of the points of interest -- specifically positive accolades -- to the top level of a discussion to accomplish two things: 1) provide visible praise to the content creators who are usually the product developers and 2) motivate others to provide useful positive feedback to be a "featured" comment.
I realize this is far from a complete project, but perhaps this idea will help inspire others to build great products that contribute towards enhancing online social interaction. Happy hacking everyone!
